On a recent episode of On Point with Juandolyn Stokes, host Juandolyn Stokes sat down with Nancy Flake Johnson, President and CEO of the Urban League of Greater Atlanta to discuss Project 2025, the current political climate and the upcoming election.
“The Temperature of our country is Hot and we are at a Pivotal Point” Johnson stated as these two dynamic ladies dove into a political discussion about being informed and empowered. “It is up to us to determine what kind of country we live in going forward.” Johnson passionately expressed.
“A person can be a felon and still run for President of the United States?” Stokes reiterated, referring to Trump as Stokes and Johnson discussed the upcoming election and its impact. Johnson suggested that we band together. “I Believe there is more of us than there are of them” Johnson spoke as she alluded to reading, digesting and sharing Project 2025, making it clear that we are at a crucial time and how it is time to build our own Project 2025.
Johnson emphasized the need for our community to accelerate our efforts to build wealth for your family and stressed the importance of voting and being informed about the issues that affect our communities and increase economic empowerment in the African American community. Listeners were encouraged to research candidates and their platforms and to make their voices heard at the ballot box.
